Molecular Functionalization of Carbon Nanotubes towards Near Infrared Photoluminescent Nanomaterials

چکیده
Local chemical functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) has been developed as a means defect doping to enhance the near infrared photoluminescence properties materials. Wavelength-tunable and exciton trapping-induced bright emission appears from locally functionalized SWCNTs (lf-SWCNTs). Molecularly designed lf-SWCNTs based on our approach produce new dynamic switching functionalities greater shifts wavelength, which gives unique lf-SWCNTs.

Near-Infrared Photoluminescent Carbon Nanotubes for Imaging of Brown Fat
Near-infrared photoluminescent single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are expected to provide effectual bio-imaging tools, although, as yet, only limited applications have been reported. Here, we report that CNTs coated with an amphiphilic and biocompatible polymer, poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine-co-n-butyl methacrylate; PMB), generate high-quality images of brown fat. Brown fat i...

Within the past decades extensive research has shed light into the structure, reactivity and properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) [1–3]. This new carbon allotrope is theoretically constructed by rolling up a graphene sheet into a cylinder with the hexagonal rings joining seamlessly. Commonly, carbon nanotubes are classified into single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) which consist of one cyli...
